* The Creator/ArthurHailey novel ''The Moneychangers'' has First Mercantile American bank agreeing to a massive $50 million (nearly $500 million in 2024 dollars) loan to the seemingly powerful Sunatco company. Board member Alex is the one person who feels something is off and hires an investigator who soon digs up the stunning truth: Sunatco is on the verge of absolute bankruptcy, keeping themselves alive by conning various banks and companies into "loans" they can never pay off (they've already extinguished almost the entire loan in months). The investigator states that all this information was out there, only no one had pieced it all together. Alex shares that Sunatco is already reaching out to new "investors," only they're wary and asking the question FMA should have been asking: Why does a company seemingly as strong and solvent as Sunatco ''need'' with loans this large in the first place?

* ''Literature/UniversalMonsters'': In book 5, a teacher stops Captain Bob in the hall and asks for his hall pass. He gets detention for not having one... except later, he finds it was in his shirt pocket (and not his pants pockets, where he'd checked) the entire time. [[SadistTeacher Said teacher, it's determined, must have seen it there but gave him detention anyway.]]

** It happened again in a game in 2014 between the Seattle Seahawks and the St. Louis Rams. On a punt by the Seahawks, primary return man Tavon Austin drifted to his left, frantically moving around as if he had trouble locating the punt against the background of the stadium's domed ceiling. The Rams players moved to block for him, and the Seahawks moved to follow. Unnoticed by nearly everyone was wideout Stedman Bailey, who caught the punt on the ''right'' side of the field, then ran up the sideline while most of the Seahawks were oblivious. He too scored a touchdown, and unlike the Bears example, there was no penalty on the play.

* [[https://web.archive.org/web/20150916024643/http://www.thegunzone.com/gunwriter.html This article]] about a gun writer's attempts to test the Colt Double Eagle handgun in 10mm, after one that exploded on him because of a damaged chamber, notes a second one that came with paperwork confirming it had been personally checked by the project engineer for the Double Eagle design. Despite this, it turned out the gun that was marked as 10mm on the box, had 10mm Auto markings on the slide and shipped with a 10mm Auto magazine, had somehow also come with a barrel and breech face for the slightly larger .45 ACP, so when he tried to load it the full cartridge slid down and out of the barrel.
